Milk Survey

111g to a Joint Federal-Provincial milk survey of the Province com‘ ducted dining the months of Aug- ust-October, 1046. The findings of this survey. embodied. in a rcport submitted to the Provincial Govern» "merit from Ottawu. were tabled without comment in the Legislature lest week by Premier J. Walter Jones.

The findings are summarized as follows:

1 Through lack of effective milk retlulations and rigid milk control measures. an inferior quality of both pasteurized and raw milk is being offered for sale in the Prov- ince of Prince Edward Island. The, pasteurlzing plants in general arel attempting to ttmn a poor grade raw. product into a good goade finished product. » i

2. The present sub-grade quality, of raw milk, and the low oqulpq merit-standard requirement is a de- terring factor in the pxoduction of a high grade quality of “pasteurimi milk.
